TVA turns to the sun for more power but shifts its focus from rooftop solar to large-scale projects
In this mention
TVA is expanding utility-scale solar generation by 44% while cutting support for residential rooftop solar installations. Stephen Smith of SACE criticizes TVA's shift away from distributed solar generation, arguing it leaves TVA behind other southeastern utilities in solar capacity. TVA defends the strategy as more cost-effective for delivering renewable energy to large corporate customers.
That has effectively killed rooftop solar and leaves TVA behind most other utilities in the Southeast in the share of power it gets from solar
